Social behavioral help if they have it. (You may need to go somewhere outside of the school for 7th grade) And where in his education he has issues, (math or writing...or whichever subjects he's having issues) have those goals to help him get caught up. And then for the next year, have it to stay caught up. Don't be afraid to get him tutoring as well, though with someone who's worked with those who have Aspergers, anxiety, and depression. I really reccomend the behavioral therapy, as that may actually help with the anxiety and depression. And once he's caught up, if you have time, I've found Taekwondo to also be helpful for my kid who also has Aspergers. (Though he's only 8 at this point.)
